1995 RRC LWB with 165000 miles and original EAS still functioning (although I am definately thinking of doing coil springs soon!)

Jigsaw89 · 04-17-2008, 09:13 PM

1995 RRC 3.9L with 117k and EAS. The only minor issue is a leaky power steering line. Despite the very small leak, it drives and looks like it's only a couple years old.

Odd fact: I bought my truck used via ebay in 4/04 with 54k miles from a guy in Vermont. The prior owner also purchased the truck via ebay from an Arizona dealer one year prior. While in VT, he fixed all the issues and installed new Michelin tires. When I purchased the truck, the new tires only had 6k miles on them... bringing total vehicle mileage to 54k. Fast forward to today >>>> I'm still driving on the same Michelin tires since the day I drove it home from VT. That's 63,000 miles on the same tires that show a mere 50% wear! These things are going dry rot before the tread wears down. I still can't believe it.

For anyone wondering about the Michelin tires, here's the info:
Michelin LTX M/S
LT 225/75 R16 110/107R

Thanks for the compliment....bought it from a small dealer that didn't know what he had at 130,000 after looking for the right one for about a year. It is definately a "love / hate" relationship.....I can't figure out if I love to hate it or if I hate loving it....

1994 LWB County.

Brooklands Green.

Bone-stock except springs instead of EAS.

67K.

PS leak.

A little oil from someplace.

Radio seems fried.

Belonged to Leonard Nimoy.

Fixing paint, and trying to keep the wife away from it...

Is it just me, or do your Rovers always seem to break after your wife drives them someplace?

'88 RRC new to me 10/07 with 84,320 ORIGINAL miles straight from scottsdale AZ. She runs like a champ!

cap-pig · 05-09-2008, 06:16 PM

1995 County LWB, 117,250 miles. Had reman 4.6 long block installed @ 115815. Great so far.

gmoudy · 08-06-2008, 09:49 PM

1991 Classic with 208,000 and counting. Maybe the new OME suspension will encourage her to keep going strong. Sure does ride better!
